About Bentley’s Breed:
Chihuahuas are bold, confident and loyal. They are affectionate with their people but can be wary of strangers but warm up quickly. They are intelligent and trainable, though they may be a little stubborn at times, but they keep it interesting! They are also known to be vocal and love to “chit chat”!
Bentley may be tiny, but his charm is larger than life. Crate trained and making great progress with potty training, this little guy is learning the ropes of dog life with curiosity and courage. He’s gentle, affectionate, and will melt your heart with a soft kiss on your hand once he starts to trust you.
Bentley’s Little Big Personality:
• Crate trained and doing well with potty training
• Best with older, respectful kids who understand his delicate size
• Sweet and affectionate—loves cuddling and sleeping in bed with his humans
• Goes outside easily and comes back in like a pro
• Still learning the world, so patience is key
• Good with dogs and cats, though big cats can be a little intimidating
• Easygoing and playful, but never overwhelming
• Loves to be close, and will happily curl up beside you for a nap
Bentley came from a rough start, so he’s still figuring things out—but every day he grows braver, more confident, and more loving. He’s the kind of pup who’ll quietly follow you from room to room, snuggle up when you’re winding down, and remind you that love doesn’t have to be loud to be powerful.
If you’re looking for a tiny companion with a tender heart, Bentley is ready to be your cuddle buddy and best friend.
